Thanks, It's an app for just me really. I just prefer to work on a desktop mac when I'm in the house, and I can't carry my iMac with me :) I do find typing much easier on an actual keyboard. Maybe I should just get a keyboard for the iPad?

Many Thanks

Amy

I've got a fairly basic core data app that I've written for personal use on my iMac. I'd like to have an iPad version as it would be very useful to have whilst I was mobile. (It's basically a customer/product database).

Is there a best way to manage sharing the data between an OS and iOS version? I assume it will be possible as long as they use the same datamodel.

I was thinking maybe some kind of dropbox sync would be best as it wouldn't depend on a network connection, and I wouldn't need to use both the mac an iPad versions at the same time. I have absolutely no idea how to do this though. I know some apps have built in dropbox sync but I fear it may be beyond me as I haven't found a handy tutorial anywhere.

Can anyone point me in the right direction at all?

Many Thanks

Amy

If it's an app for multiple users to have the same data, you probably want to have a central database that client apps retrieve data from.
Core data isn't really a multi-cient database.
